I've got a questionTell me, what makes a poet?  I really want to know.  
 
Must he be an English Major  With a dictionary everywhere he goes?   
Or is he still a poet if he was raised on the streets  Reciting his verses to a rhythm and a beat?   
Tell me, what makes a poet?  I really want to know.  
 
Must he be a goth  Speaking 'bout the darkness of the soul?   
Or can he be a comic  Looking for some laughs?   
Does he have to be a genius  Or can he be a clown?   
Tell me, what makes a poet?  I really want to know.  
 
Must he be like Earnest I've got a question

Blank PagesThe ink has dried  I stare at the words now lying on the page  They float up and create a vivid image of love, hope, triumph and pain   
They speak of romance and roses  Of broken hearts and tears  Of soldiers and bombshells  Of desolation and fears   
But before another word is read  I shut out these imageries  
Former ideas that used to reside in my head  But tonight I can lay them all to rest  On the pages beneath two hard bound covers now lying on my desk   
For I am an author but not my own hero  I am a storyteller with no stories of my own. Blank Pages

Where is She?She was in each star that crowded the vast night sky   
She was in each streetlight that stood as a florescent guide   
She was in each guitar string plucked so slowly and smooth   
She was in every singer even those who sang out of tune   
She was each verse of a poet's finished work   
She was the beauty lying beneath his every word   
She was in each chill that came with the October breeze   
She was in each leaf that fell off of these orange-tinted trees   
She was in each passing car   
She was in each candle in the dark   
She was the las Where is She?

C.rushedI never really believed in love at first sight  but my heart it leaped when you caught my eye  and now I can't seem to see anybody else in this room  if only somehow gravity would find a way to pull me closer to you   
After this day, I'll never be able to forget your name  because I swear I haven't stopped saying it since then  Your smile could light up this whole night sky  because girl even the stars can't possibly shine as bright   
When we both walk out those doors will it have to end?  will the spotlight come to a close on something that never really did begin? C.rushed

Learning it the hard way

Sun Sep 13, 2009, 6:43 AM
Ok. Well here in Manila it's been raining for quite sometime now. It's been annoying cause I haven't gotten to play soccer lately. So today I decided to try and go play since it wasn't raining. The field was muddy but I didn't mind. Still had a good practice.

Learned a couple of things though.

Rule 1: Change back into slipper (flip-flops or whatever you call it) AFTER you cross the muddy field. haha

Rule 2: NEVER wear WHITE shorts

Rule 3: if you DO wear WHITE shorts BRING an extra pair.

Rule 4: MAKE SURE YOU DON'T HAVE TO WALK HOME

RULE 5: Don't let your mom see you walk into the house muddy as hell.

You'd think that after 17 years of life, I'd have the common sense to know those things but apparently I don't haha. Just glad the colleges I applied to won't know about it. (SHH DON'T TELL COLLEGE OK!?) haha.

Well that's all. Still in a writing slump...argh..oh well

Peace!
